Some German (?) users react to the Rheinmetall threads rather painfully. @RheinmetallAG account responded with awkward misinformation
Understandable, but still funny. Typically I ignore seething comments, unless I find some factual counterclaims there. This time I did

This guy claims
a) that I didn't call a single source
b) that portraying Roskosmos as a producer of ballistic missiles for the military is a mistake
Fine, let's go into details

Fine, let's go into details
Topol-M rockets I was discussing are produced on Votkinsky plant, Izhevsk. Which is a part of Roskosmos structure. That's just one example. Roskosmos is *the* producer of ballistic rockets, even ballistic rockets for Iskander are also done on Roskosmos plants 
Next claim: 
Deutsche Welle is a German public state owned media. Their report about the Russian-German military cooperation from 2011 directly claims that the gas masks of this German Army combat training centre in Letzlingen *do* have pressure sensors to detect if a soldier loosened it 
Actually the Rheinmetall thread has a link on this Deutsche Welle report. It even has "source" designation, so nobody can miss it 
This is my favourite German (?) reaction. I mean it is so beautiful that I am afraid to destroy its charm by any comments. I'll just leave it be, as a piece of art 
That sort of feedback is understandable, you kinda expect it when covering unpleasant stuff. Much of "criticism" you see, is not criticism at all, but just the seething of personal or political enemies parroted by the clueless. That's a good thing actually. It is afraid
So let's make it more afraid. I need meme artists anyway, so let's turn it into a contest. A contest of memes on the Rheinmetall AG and its collaboration with Putin. I'll ask the authors of best memes to work with me. Tomorrow I'll write details and give some ideas. The end
